Multiple destructive tornadoes touched down in a highly populated area near Dayton, Ohio, and surrounding communities, causing catastrophic damage and leaving many trapped by debris.
The National Weather Service reports the dangerous twisters, which began late Monday night, are causing considerable damage and are urging people to take cover immediately.
Tornadoes have been reported in Mercer, Darke, Miami and Montgomery counties. Injuries have been reported.
„Debris being lofted into the air by a tornado south of Circlevile, Ohio,“ the NWS tweeted just after 1 a.m. ET.
Multiple buildings have collapsed and at least one house has been cut in half, KOCO Meteorologist Michael Armstrong relayed on Twitter. He added that a „¼ mile stretch of power poles broken… Medics having difficulty accessing areas.“
Photos taken by the Dayton Daily News show cars with the roof caved in by fallen trees or under piles of wood from a destroyed house nearby.
